Upcoming Dig Your Own Hole 20 year anniversary speculation and or suggestions

[toxic]

jpc still selling them (from Germany) jpc.de

edit: only one in stock at the moment (10:20)

[inchemwetrust]

but it seems pointless to have 4 different copies of Dig Your Own Hole that all have the same track listing...

im a nerd when it comes to collecting but 4 would be raising the bar.

I have the original 97 copy and was about to order the white copy awhile back until the silver edition came out.

Silver > White

congrats to all who scored one!

Toxic, I know you'll post some vinylporn soon since you get this shit first!

Which one is the real deal? jpc is saying one vinyl and juno is telling about two vinyls

[Shotglass75]

Pretty sure it's Juno.  If you look at the link to the Sound Of Vinyl and Juno the product code match up.  Doesn't seem to be the case with jpc but who knows?.

I hate to be so ungrateful, but it should have been box set of the re-issue of the LP in color, and the individual singles from DYOH in 7" format.

HS! I just pumped the breaks and canceled my order from the store that I purchased from earlier (my previous link). Juno saved me almost 20 bucks, and with fed ex priority, we'll have it next week!

Glad I caught your post shotglass!

Bosco is a lifesaver, everyone!  Pointed me in the direction of one for sale on eBay for only a few bucks more than what I originally paid! 

Thanks bud!  I owe ya one!

Yes, Bosco is da vinyl lifesaver man! Glad it worked out for you!

Since it's uncertain there is no bonus tracks of any sort, I might be willing to part with my copy if it's just the original album track listing.

Was there going to be a serial number on these, or at least anything special beyond the silver colored vinyl?

I just confirmed (thru discogs messaging )with an owner of this copy that IT DOES NOT have extra tracks and IT IS NOT serial numbered. it does have a download code though.

Im fine with it, but when you release a 20 year old b-day album,you do it with bang.

[Bosco]

So the question now is, why did Buzz Tracks and Leave Home make it on the original tracklisting for this release?

They seem to be to random to happen by mistake. I wonder if it was going to be some sort of live version...

[inchemwetrust]

if you look at neorevs post here...

https://forum.thechembase.com/index.php/topic,539.20.html

...he did a copy/paste from the chems facebook page.

now, if you go to the facebook page, the mention of the extra tracks is missing!

[ThePumisher]

If you read it carefully, the copy/paste from the chemsite ends with "x chemical hq"

The Buzz Tracks and Leave Home stuff comes from Neorev and thesoundofvinyl.com

Why the hell should Leave Home be a bonus track on DYOH?
The only possible Bonus Tracks would be Buzz Tracks, These Beats Are Made For Breaking, Morning Lemon, Not Another Drugstore, Prescription Beats and maybe Loops Of Fury & The Best Part Of Breaking Up, Otter Rock or Here Come The Drums

Maybe the sound of vinyl has these two exclusive tracks and everyone else doesn't,but that wouldn't make sense either!

Edit: they were copied from (i think SOV or Facebook) and pasted. these links say the album contains the extra tracks!

Hey, can you find out what type of files come with the download code? 320kbps MP3, standard 16 bit WAV/FLAC, or 24 bit WAV/FLAC???

Well why did SoundofVinyl have it listed then? All I'm implying is it seems too random to select those two tracks. And lets not discount the fact that Chems HQ directed people to buy it from them.

[inchemwetrust]

Thats a mystery we will never find out unfortunately!

SOV said it was an error! It accidentally posted the two tracks on their website, but was immediately taken down within 24hrs!

Now thats out of the way,im waitng for Fed Ex to to arrive!

wav format only!

I just got it in today!

Its more of a gray than silver color! The album cover has a textured paper feel to it unlike the glossy paper found on others.

Has a hype sticker on the left corner about the 20th anniversary.

And as I mentioned before, a DL code, that's from the sound of vinyl website. Everything looks good so far...

...but they shipped it in flatpack cardboard. My album has my corners bent. WTF!

[toxic]

As I went to my favourite recordstore in Amsterdam last Sunday I was very surprised to see that they were selling the 20th anniversary Edition. So I had no problems getting one. I was also very surprised that the record looks more grey then silver

The hype sticker looks like silver though

@inchemwetrust: annoying about the bent corners. I have the feeling this is going to happen with my order from TSOV (didn't received mine yet), thats why I bought a second one which is in perfect shape (they had like 5 in stock).

As for catalogue number/etchings: No "XDUSTLP2", but "MIKE'S - THE EXCHANGE" is etched in the runout grooves

Good for you for getting a backup copy!

Im a little disappointed about the grey color not actually being silver.

As for the album, i shot juno uk an email with complaint and pics of my bent album. They said "keep it, well send you another one"....

As first i was like cool.....then i thought...NOOOOOOOO!😭
